Day 1 Day 2 BACKGROUND The financial crisis and the impact on the economy has set a totally new environment for banks and financial institutions. Co-operative banks are facing with the challenges triggered by the new legislative framework: Basel 3, the Banking Union and the new consumer protec-tion and investors rules.

OBJECTIVE

This course is a unique opportunity to get an introduction to how EU works, the new regula-tory and supervisory framework in Europe for co-operative banks and the role of the EACB as lobbying association. Professional lobbyists will bring their insider knowledge on key changes in the regulatory (and business) envi-ronment. The specific impact on co-operative banks will be discussed in depth.

KEY TOPICS

Lobbying and the EACB

The European Banking Union

Regulatory trends regarding credit institu-tions: impact on co-operative banks

Regulatory trends regarding retail banking products and practices impact on co-operative banks

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

The course is aimed at co-operative bankers seeking an introduction to the EU legislative framework as well as to the lobbying process to defend and promote co-operative banks’ specificities.

NETWORKING

The course will be an excellent opportunity to meet co-operative bankers from different Euro-pean countries, compare experiences and exchange practices. A networking dinner will be held at the end of Day 1.
